Hollywood Writers’ Strike: Impact on Streaming and Entertainment Industry

Maybe, in a few months, your routine sit down to watch a favorite series on a platform of streaming be affected by the strike that began, a week ago, the members of the Film and Television Writers Guild as a measure of pressure Negotiating your working conditions with the AFilm and Television Producers Alliance which represents the big film studios and producers.

This is the reissue of the last break of this type, since the previous one took place in 2007, and lasted 100 days, affecting the making several movies and series.

On this occasion, the Job issue has several hot spots that have to do with salary improvements but also with a great effect of uncertainty about what might happen in the future with the advent of artificial intelligence.

Some analysts attribute to a lack of trust between workers and management just in a moment of massive transformation of the entertainment industry.

The first affected have been the ‘late shows‘ so the driver of one of the most viewed, Jimmy Fallon was emphatic in pointing out that “I am nobody without my writers”.

As a journalist who was in front of the screen as a interviewer in the Cala programbroadcast for five years by CNNI can properly say that certainly no anchor can keep any space afloat without the support of the people who are in charge of it. write the lines we say in front of camera.

And while the conflict seems to escalate, in fact, as I finish writing this note, we receive news of platforms like disney that they will suspend the salaries of the personnel that fulfill other functions (besides being scriptwriters) in their productions; we appeal to that neutrality and synderesis prevail in these moments of negotiation.

It is also a good time to remember that every movie, series or television program first part of a written idea so it should exist equilibrium between the benefits perceived by those behind the cameras and those in front of them.

We hope that this conflict will be resolved soon, since I am aware of the role of entertainment in everyone’s lives, but also of the need for balance and justice in terms of salaries of all those who make it possible for magic to happen.
